Video Tape: Gareth Liddiard @ The Lower Town Hall, The Sydney Festival 2011



Well, after last week writing hopefully we'll see some video recording of this gig here is two songs from the wonderful Mess+Noise, already. "Blondin Makes An Omelette" and "Strange Tourist", fingers crossed the rest of the show is on the way too but even if not these two are totally wicked. It does look like a bit of an odd gig to play watching these videos but it's way better that someone recording him on their mobile phone. I'm really liking this Vimeo as well, so much better than youtube. Plus since last time he's announced another national tour also singer-songwriter Dan Kelly will be the special guest on this tour, if you haven't seen the dates I've included them at the bottom of this page. We do have to wait until March or April to see Gareth Liddiard so if you haven't seen him yet, get a ticket and go and see him and Dan together, it will be great.

Photos: Gareth Liddiard @ The Lower Town Hall, The Sydney Festival 2011

















OK, my Gareth Liddiard obsession continues will another collection of photos from the last show he's played at the Lower Town Hall, the Sydney Festival on 13/01/11 just a few days ago. From two sources, the first three photos are from FasterLouder by someone who calls himself TheEnglishGentleman and the rest are from Mess+Noise the rest of the photos are by Daniel Boud. Below is a thirty second youtube preview of what the video looked like, fingers crossed someone pressed the record button and one day soon we get to see the whole show in all it's glory. Gareth Liddiard played in between Kram from Spiderbait playing mainly drums plus some guitar too and a hungover Sarah Blasko who was accompanied by a pianist. Sounds like a good gig but from what I can figure out each performer was only given 20 minute sets with four video screens which was turned into some kind of a large-scale video installation thingy, if someone who was there could explain what happened please do because I wasn't there. Anyway we are still waiting on the "new" Drones DVD so I guess we are not going to get a Gaz one any time soon but maybe someone could upload it to youtube because it would be better than this one below, thirty seconds but it's better than nothing at the moment I guess.



Anyway one day I'll post a blog without writing about Gareth Liddiard or Nick Cave, maybe.
